A

Cloudy with the odd sunny spell, 14°, light SSW.

Between 40-50 Swift and up to 20 House Martin and the odd Swallow feeding over Lollingdon Hill for a time, they seemed to be moving ahead of the rain clouds that were passing further south with the birds eventually moving off north.

A couple of Corn Bunting present and the usual Common Whitethroat and Blackcap on the hill and a Yellow Wagtail flew over.

Nearby a Little Owl, a vocal Jay and a couple more Yellow Wagtail.

Most frequent songsters today were Yellowhammer and Common Whitethroat followed closely by Blackcap and Chiffchaff with singles of Reed Bunting and Lesser Whitethroat.

River/Bunk: Grey Wagtail, several House Martin, Swallow and Swift, Yellow Wagtail plus the usual Warblers.

Mammals: Brown Hare.

Dragonflies: Black-tailed Skimmer.

Butterflies: Common Blue, Small Tortoiseshell, Painted Lady, Speckled Wood and Meadow Brown.
